Apple gave Climate Desk, a group of media partners dedicated to exploring how we are impacting the environment, access to its North Carolina solar farm, which helps power data centres for iCloud.

The video shows a closer look at solar arrays and also has Apple’s Lisa Jackson, Vice President for Environmental Initiatives at the company talking about their environmental efforts.

In the video below, Apple is touted as a green leader when it comes to renewable energy:

Last month, Apple released their 2014 Environmental Responsibility Report, which noted 145 U.S. retail stores and all retail stores in Australia are being powered by 100 percent renewable energy.
